IND vs NZ 3rd Test: New Zealand captain Tom Latham has remained humble despite the recent 3-0 Test series clean sweep against India and said the Rohit Sharma-led side has the potential to make a great comeback as soon as possible. Under Latham's leadership, the Kiwis became the first visiting team to clean sweep a three-match or more series against India on their soil by winning the Bengaluru, Pune and Mumbai Tests. Latham said after arriving here from India, “Indian cricket is really special. We have played a lot of cricket against them.
Our players play with them in IPL. They were obviously disappointed with the loss but their team is still very good.'' He said, ''Losing a series doesn't make them a bad team overnight. I am confident that he will be successful in changing things.”
Latham said the series win was also special because New Zealand had suffered a 0-2 defeat against Sri Lanka before coming to India. He said, “When we were on the Sri Lanka tour, the conditions were not going our way and so winning this series becomes special because you achieve something which has not been achieved before.”
We celebrated this win together.'' New Zealand will now face England in a three-match series at home and Latham said facing the 'baseball' brand of cricket would be a different kind of challenge for his team. He said, “I think it will be an exciting series.”
Test matches against England, whether at home or away, are always exciting. So I am confident that this series will also be exciting. We are excited to challenge his aggressive brand of cricket.”
